How do you figure?  I installed pluto yesterday, and I have not changed
this configuration:

   mds@pluto:~
   # sudo update-alternatives --display x-terminal-emulator
   Password:
   x-terminal-emulator - status is auto.
    link currently points to /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm
   /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm - priority 20
    slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xterm.1x.gz
   /usr/X11R6/bin/uxterm - priority 20
    slave x-terminal-emulator.1.gz: /usr/X11R6/man/man1/uxterm.1x.gz
   /usr/bin/konsole - priority 20
   Current `best' version is /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm.

   mds@pluto:~
   # uname -a
   Linux pluto 2.6.2-1-686-smp #1 SMP Thu Feb 19 23:32:17 EST 2004 i686
